LONDON, UK, November 2010: The Home and Garden team at VoucherCodes.co.uk can exclusively reveal that a staggering 10.47% of people asked have seen a neighbor burning plastic or other harmful materials in their garden.
While the number is on the decrease, our questionnaire confirms that this remains an important environmental issue.
Domestic sources such as barbeques and garden bonfires are estimated to account for 1.6% of the UK's national carbon dioxide emissions.
The burning of plastic, rubber, oil-based or painted materials releases a range of toxic compounds which can have serious health consequences with long-term exposure. The burning of plastic also contributes to air pollution more generally.
Furthermore, 9.03% of interviewees have reported seeing neighbors throw rubbish into a garden, representing another concern for environmentalists.
This is widely regarded not only as an eye-sore but as a serious threat to local wildlife, particularly if the waste contains sharp or poisonous materials for animals.
